Gophers football: Nate Andrews switches commitment

Three-star Fairhope High School (Ala.) defensive back Nate Andrews switched his commitment from the University of Minnesota to Florida State this week after visiting the Seminoles on Jan. 18.

Andrews, a 6-foot, 180-pound senior, committed to Gophers coach Jerry Kill in December, but he later received scholarship offers from Alabama and Florida State. Kill had previously lost three-star safety Nate Godwin, who switched from Minnesota to South Florida in December. Tartan cornerback Keelon Brookins also reneged on his commitment to join Wisconsin's recruiting class in July.

Kill still has 14 players in his 2013 recruiting class, which will become official on signing day Feb. 6.
